on the road.
“Ye-e-es. 1 know, aud that’s one reas m why I hate to add another one to the salary list.” “But tf wo go back to New York With a better act than the one they gave us, don’t you think you’d get all the credit coming to you as a manager,” .Mary argued.

At last the big clock In the auditorium showed the appointed hour and Jack hurried back stage to find Btrs.

"We'll have to get a pianist,’’ Berg stated, once they were in the office where an upright piano nnd a few ba-.kets of artificial flower* made up the brief decorations, lie picked up a phone and called back

Jack selected one of the ■‘mammy" songs. As the Introduction rattled out ho trembled violently. He took his rue In a shaky voice. And then he thought of the golden-haired girl ilownstaire who had taken enough Interest In him to give him thi* chance. For her sake he couldn't

By the time the songster was flnIshtvl he was sitting on the edge of Ills chair. At the conclusion of the music Berg drummed for a few moments with his fingers on the
arm of his wicker seat.
’Tlm-m-m," lie began, slowly. “Tell you what I’ll do, Mr. Robin. I can’t make any decision myself. I'll have to wire the New York office. But I like your voice, and that’s a good number.

.MISS H ATTIE ( . HOW F.
Marriage overwhelmingly defeats all individuality in a man and makes his thoughts serf to those of his wlie, according to the eminent savant, Count Hermann Keyserling, considered by many the greatest thinker in
the world today.
Count Keyserling, visitor In Cuicago, praised women as rulers, as guiders of the destinies of the world but bitterly denunciated them as parasites of men's intelligence. "True, 1 am married, but I married late in life,” said Count Keyserling today. “1 hail an opportunity to think to give vent to my ideas unhampered i by a woman's meager Intelligence. Has there ever been a great woman thinker—really great one? No. I
ers for the production, James Cruzc, Paramount director, has this to say: "Three entire months were required for the choosing of the players for ‘Old Ironsides.’ Each part was given the most careful and deliberate consideration. Even the two thousand plays used in the gigantic battle sequence between the frigate “Constitu tion” and the Barbary corsairs were selected one by one with meticulous care. “For the part of the boy, the leading male role, the requirements were as follows: He must be six feet, two inches tall and must weigh around 170 pounds. He must possess a rugged build and his personality must be ever changing. At times he must
. Jtave the appearance of an awkward

must have the fire daring and courage
to sweep one off one's feet.
"This part was by far the most dif ficult to fill of any of the featured roles in the production. Think over all the players on the screen today and see'if you can find one who fills all of these requirements. Hundreds of interviews and scores of screen tests were taken of possible candidates before Charles Farrell was found. Those W'ho have already seen the picture know that he fitted the role per-
fectly.
“For the role of the gigantic mas-ter-gunner of the frigate “Constitution,” George Bancroft was our first last and only choice. Bancroft fitted into the part as completely as the door to a bank vault fits into its open ing. There was no doubt that he was the perfect type for the role. “The mate on the windjammer ‘Esther’ could have been played by no one but Wallace Berry. The part was written especially with Beery in mind This role was therefore the least difficult to cast of any in the entire picture. Beery has more than filled every expectation.
of the world but only because they attaind that position through men. "Had I married in my youth the result would have been the same In tny ease as in that of any other man who aspires to the creative life. It would have been dlsasterous. It
would have been a catastrophe.
“If genius Is to survive marriage the propagation of the race must be left to the average man and woman.’' Count Kyserllng married the daugh'er of German's iron chancellor Von Bismarck. Of his own married life the great Savant was silent. During eight hundred years of the world's history no man of spirit ever married. He entered a moiiaetery instead. Genius is not bom oi
genius. It is an accident.
“Singleness if far less necessary to a woman us a man. Tn unite her life with that of a man is apparently instinctive with women. She withstand the Impact of marriage far bet
ter Ilian man.
"But it makes man. a serf, marriage. Persons approach marriage too optimistically. They expect great things of it. They look for happiness through marriage and Instead they find tragedy in tho majority of
cases.”

“A few doses of Konjola c r.vinced me that I had found the right medi1 cine at last,” said Miss Hattie C. Howe, 163 Perry St., Elgin, 111. “I had been doctoring for a lonj time for stomach trouble and nervousness but nothing ever wcmol 1" help me and my condition wa always growing worse. Terrible indigestion pains caused me the most suffering. After meals 1 would ' ioat up with gas until I could hardly get my breath and my throat and chest would burn like fire. At night I would get so nervous that it wa- ini- : possible for me to get more than a few hours sleep. “When I realized Konjola w , hclp,ing me, 1 kept right on with it until I was sure my whole system wa- thoroughly cleansed.
